Ignorance, Embarrassing
POSTED in: Ramblings

We got a comment over at Schildies by Anonymous saying that we should celebrate Thanksgiving before shoving Christmas things down everyones throat.

I love “critics” that say more about the person that said it than the person that was critisized.

Anni is German, I am Austrian.

American history is mandatory in 11th grade, isnt it. (It is in Minnesota!)

Thank goodness american influence isnt at that level, where we would celebrate every single american holiday worldwide. We actually have our own holidays. *gasp!*

Did I show you the latest gift I received from the MSN group that I am in yet? You will love it, it is Christmassy!

    Yes, like we only started studying American history this year and it was a short topic on the American West. We don’t have many British or even English holidays, but America isn’t all we have to follow. Anyway, it is your site, so you can do what you please

    I am so sorry about that. Some people. I swear there are these people who think the entire world is exactly like the USA. Since my penpalling involves only people from outside of the USA I have leanred so many wonderful things about other countries. It’s so kewl. And I wish I had the monies to travel more.

    UGH, can you believe my neighbor has his Christmas lights up allready. I think it’s just a bit early for that. Oh well.
